Jacket having warm pocket

ABSTRACT

Disclosed is a jacket having a warm pocket capable of warming hands of a user without interrupting user&#39;s activity in the field. The jacket has a dual-layer structure of an inner skin and an outer skin so as to accommodate a warmer therein. A pocket is formed at a front part or a rear part of the jacket by sewing the inner skin with the outer skin in the form of a pocket. The pocket is formed at both sides thereof with openings so as to allow a user to put both hands into the pocket. An inner pocket formed at one side thereof with a hand warmer receiving section is coupled to an outer surface of the inner skin.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a jacket having a warm pocket. More particularly, the present invention relates to a jacket having a warm pocket capable of warming hands of a user without interrupting user's activity in the field.

Some sports games, such as golf, inline skating, etc., must be played outdoors due to their characteristics.

Particularly, in the case of golf, golfers rarely wear heavy gloves because it is important to precisely grip the golf club. Even in the winter season, golfers may wear thin jackets adhering to bodies of the golfers so as to smoothly perform swing action. Since it is necessary to simplify the thin jacket, the thin jacket is only formed with a small pocket suitable for storing small golf equipment, such as a tee. Thus, the golfer may not easily put their hands in the small pocket. If the golfer plays golf while wearing a thin golf glove in the winter season, sensibility of fingers may be lowered, so that the golfer cannot play his/her best game.

BACKGROUND ART

In order to solve the above problem, a warming device as shown in FIG. 50 has been suggested.

FIG. 50 is a view illustrating a conventional warming device.

As shown in FIG. 50, the conventional warming device is a warming glove 10 capable of receiving a user's hand 1 wearing a golf glove 2.

The warming glove 10 is fabricated in the form of a mitten so as to easily receive the user's hand 1 wearing the golf glove 2. The user may put on or take off the warming glove 10 through an opening 12 formed in the warming glove 10.

However, since the warming glove 10 must be connected to the jacket of the user using a string, it may interrupt swing action of the user. In addition, it is inconvenient to use the warming glove 10 because the user must hold the warming glove 10 using one hand in order to put the other hand into the warming glove 10.

In order to solve the above problem, another warming device as shown in FIGS. 51 and 52 has been suggested.

FIG. 51 is a perspective view illustrating another conventional warming device and FIG. 52 is a view illustrating the usage state of another conventional warming device.

As shown in FIG. 51, another conventional warming device is a warming bag 20, which adheres to the waist of the user through a waist strap 24. The warming bag 20 is formed at an inner portion thereof with a pocket 22 extending lengthwise along the warming bag 20 while forming openings at both side end portions of the warming bag 20 so that the user can put both hands into the pocket 22 of the warming bag 20. In addition, an insertion portion 26 and a receiving portion 28 of a buckle are provided at both end portions of the waist strap 24.

As shown in FIG. 51, the user can attach the warming bag 20 having the above structure around the waist of the user's jacket 30 using the waist strap 24.

However, since the pocket 22 formed in the warming bag 20 has a cylindrical structure so as to allow the user to easily put or pull the user's hands into or out of the pocket 22, the pocket 22 may interrupt the user's activity and the aesthetic appearance of the warming bag 20 may be degraded. In addition, when the user wears a coat, the user must remove and store the warming bag 20 in a separate place, causing inconvenience of use for the warming bag 20.

DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION Technical Problem

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a jacket having a warm pocket formed by coupling an attachable member to the jacket, wherein the attachable member is coupled to an outer surface of an inner skin of the jacket to form the warm pocket on the outer surface of the inner skin of the jacket, or the attachable member is coupled to an inner surface of the inner skin of the jacket to form the warm pocket on the inner surface of the inner skin of the jacket, in which openings are formed at both sides of the warm pocket to allow a user to put both hands into the warm pocket.

An intermediate member is interposed between the attachable member and a pre-determined portion of the jacket corresponding to the attachable member, and the attachable member is coupled to the jacket and the inner skin is coupled to an outer skin by means of the intermediate member.

The attachable member is closely coupled to the inner skin of the jacket to form the warm pocket closely to the jacket, or a height adjustment section is formed at a lateral side of the attachable member such that the warm pocket is spaced apart from the jacket.

According to still another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a jacket having a warm pocket formed by coupling an attachable member to the jacket, wherein the attachable member is coupled to one of an outer surface of an outer skin, an inner surface of the outer skin, an outer surface of an inner skin, and an inner surface of the inner skin of the jacket, the attachable member has a box shape, and openings are formed at both sides of the attachable member to allow a user to put both hands into the warm pocket.

According to still yet another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a jacket having a dual-layer structure of an inner skin and an outer skin, wherein the inner skin is coupled to the outer skin to form a warm pocket, and openings are formed at both sides of the warm pocket to allow a user to put both hands into the warm pocket.

An intermediate member is interposed between the inner and outer skins constituting the warm pocket, and the inner skin is coupled to the outer skin by means of the intermediate member.

The inner skin is closely coupled to the outer skin to form the warm pocket closely to the jacket, or a height adjustment section is formed at lateral side sections of the inner and outer skins such that the warm pocket is spaced apart from the jacket.

An inner pocket formed at one side thereof with an opening port for receiving a warmer is coupled to an inner surface of the warmer pocket.

The warm pocket, the inner skin of the jacket, or a part of the inner skin includes a flexible material.

The inner skin is divided into a front inner skin corresponding to an abdomen of a user and a rear inner skin corresponding to a back of the user, and the front inner skin is coupled to the rear inner skin by means of a Velcro tape.

A lateral opening section equipped with an opening/closing unit is formed at a lateral side section of the jacket where a front part meets a rear part of the jacket, in such a manner that a user is able to couple the front inner skin to the rear inner skin by putting a hand into the lateral opening section.

A length adjustment member capable of adjusting a length thereof is further coupled to one of both sides of the warm pocket of the jacket, the outer surface of the outer skin, the inner surface of the outer skin, the outer surface of the inner skin, and the inner surface of the inner skin so as to closely apply the warm pocket around a waist of the user.

The length adjustment member is detachably coupled to one of both sides of the warm pocket of the jacket, the outer surface of the outer skin, the inner surface of the outer skin, the outer surface of the inner skin, and the inner surface of the inner skin.

A lateral opening section equipped with an opening/closing unit is formed at a lateral side section of the jacket where a front part meets a rear part of the jacket, in such a manner that a user is able to adjust the length adjustment member by putting a hand into the lateral opening section.

A detachable member is provided at a lower portion of the attachable member or a lower portion of the inner pocket of the jacket in such a manner that the attachable member or the inner pocket is detachably coupled to the jacket or the warm pocket, respectively.

A lateral inner portion of the outer skin of the jacket is opened such that the user is able to put a hand into the jacket from a front inner portion to a rear inner portion of the jacket through the opening of the warm pocket.

The warm pocket is selectively formed on a front part or a rear part of the jacket, or simultaneously formed on both front and rear parts of the jacket.

The warm pocket is formed with a sewing section, which divides the warm pocket into left and right pocket sections.

ADVANTAGEOUS EFFECTS

As mentioned above, according to the present invention, the warm pocket is closely coupled to the jacket, so the warm pocket does not interrupt the user's activity in the field.

That is, the warm pocket can be formed in the jacket having the dual-layer structure by combining the outer skin with the inner skin, or the warm pocket can be formed in the jacket having the single-layer or dual-layer structure by coupling the attachment member to the inner or outer surface of the inner or outer skin of the jacket. In addition, the warm pocket can be formed by coupling the attachment member having a box shape to the inner or outer surface of the inner or outer skin of the jacket. Thus, it is possible to provide the jacket having various pockets.

In the case where the intermediate member is interposed between the attachment member and the jacket or between the inner skin and the outer skin of the jacket having the dual-layer structure, the jacket can be coupled with the attachment member or the inner skin can be coupled with the outer skin through the intermediate member, so the sewing line may not be exposed to the exterior so that the jacket has a simple design. In addition, an inner pocket can be stably supported by the intermediated member regardless of the materials of the jacket.

In addition, according to the present invention, when the jacket has the dual-layer structure or when the attachment member is closely coupled to the jacket, the inner skin is closely coupled to the outer skin so that it is possible to provide the jacket having the slim and simple structure. If a height adjustment section is provided between the jacket and the attachment member and between the inner and outer skins, the user can easily insert user's hand into the warm pocket and a casual jacket can be realized.

In particular, when the opening of the pocket is sealed by means of a Velcro fastener or a slide fastener, the jacket may have the structure substantially identical to that of a jacket having no pocket. Thus, the pocket does not sag downward, so that the pocket will not interrupt swing action of the user.

In addition, since the inner pocket formed at one side thereof with the hand warmer receiving section is coupled to the outer surface of the inner skin, it is possible to accommodate the warmer in the inner pocket as required by the user. In this case, the warming efficiency of the jacket can be improved.

Furthermore, since the inner pocket is detachably coupled to the inner skin by means of the detachable member, the user can selectively employ the inner pocket when the warmer is necessary, for example, in the winter season. Thus, the structure of the jacket can be simplified and the weight of the jacket can be reduced.

In addition, since the inner pocket is made from a flexible material, such as spandex, the inner pocket is adaptable for receiving the warmer having various sizes. If the inner pocket is made from the flexible material, the warmer can be prevented from being unintentionally separated from the warmer receiving section even if a separate fastening member is not provided at the inlet of the warmer receiving section.

Meanwhile, a fastening member, such as a zipper, a button, a Velcro fastener, or a snap, can be provided at the inlet of the inner pocket so as to perfectly prevent the warmer from being separated from the warmer receiving section.

In addition, if the whole inner skin or a part of the inner skin formed with the inner pocket is made from the flexible material, it is possible to further prevent the pocket from sagging downward due to the weight of the warmer.

The inner skin can be divided into the front inner skin formed at the abdominal part of the jacket and the rear inner skin formed at the back part of the jacket while coupling the front inner skin with the rear inner skin using a Velcro tape. In addition, the length adjustment member, such as the elastic band, can be coupled to the lateral portion of the inner skin. In this case, it is possible to further prevent the pocket from sagging downward due to the weight of the warmer.

In addition, the warmer may closely adhere to the body of the user, so that the aesthetic appearance of the jacket may not be deteriorated. Since the warmer closely adheres to the body of the user, the body of the user may be warmed in addition to the hands of the user.

Meanwhile, lateral openings having opening/closing units are formed at lateral side sections of the jacket at which a front part of the jacket meets a rear part of the jacket, so the user can couple the front inner skin, the rear inner skin and a length adjustment member with each other by putting user's hand into the lateral openings.

According to the present invention, the sewing section can be formed at the center portion of the warm pocket in order to divide the warm pocket into left and right pocket parts. In this case, the warm pocket has the structure identical to that of a pocket generally formed in the typical jacket, so the warm pocket may satisfy the preference of the user.

In addition, the warm pocket according to the present invention can be formed at the front part and/or the rear part of the jacket. Thus, when the user performs swing action, the user may use only the warm pocket formed at the rear part of the jacket while fastening the warm pocket formed at the front part of the jacket using a zipper or a Velcro tape such that the warm pocket may not interrupt the swing action of the user. In addition, the user can use the warm pocket formed at the front part of the jacket when the user performs other activities.

According to the present invention, a detachable member is provided at the lower surface of the pocket having the hand warmer therein in such a manner that the pocket can be detachably coupled to the outer skin of the jacket. In this case, the user can selectively use the pocket as required by the user.

In addition, according to the present invention, the inner pocket as well as the warm pocket and the length adjustment member can be detachably attached to the single-layered or dual-layered jacket, so that the user can remove the inner pocket, the warm pocket and the length adjustment member from the jacket if warming the hands of the user is not necessary. Accordingly, the user can wear the jacket having the simple structure without degrading the style of dressing when warming the hands of a user is not necessary.

Furthermore, the length adjustment member of the present invention can be coupled to the inner surface or the outer surface of the outer skin, the inner skin, or the warm pocket of the dual-layered jacket, or can be coupled to the outer surface or the inner surface of the outer skin or the warm pocket of the single-layered jacket. Thus, the length adjustment member adheres to the human body so that the warming efficiency can be further improved. In addition, since the length adjustment member can be coupled to the inner portion of the jacket, it may not degrade the style of dressing. Also, the length adjustment member can be coupled to the outer portion of the jacket. In this case, the manufacturing cost of the jacket equipped with the length adjustment member can be reduced while improving convenience of use for the length adjustment member. That is, the length adjustment member can be coupled to the jacket in various manners according to the preference of the user.

According to the twenty-sixth embodiment of the present invention, not only the inner pocket 2620, but also the warm pocket can be removed from the jacket 2600 when the warmer is not used. Thus, the user can conveniently use the jacket 2600 as a normal golf suit when the warmer is not necessary.

Meanwhile, although the present embodiment has been described in that the inner pocket and the attachable member are detachably coupled to the outer skin 2710 of the jacket to form the warm pocket, the present invention is applicable for various jackets having the warm pocket formed by the attachable member. In addition, slide fasteners, buttons, or adhesion tapes can be used instead of the Velcro tapes.

In addition, it is also possible to detachably couple the inner pocket only.

That is, the structure according to the twenty-sixth embodiment of the present invention is applicable for the jacket having a single-layer structure or a dual-layer structure including the inner skin and the outer skin. In this case, the warm pocket can be detachably coupled to the jacket.

That is, in the case where the jacket has the single-layer structure, an attachable outer skin or an attachable inner skin is coupled to an outer surface or an inner surface of the jacket to form the warm pocket. At this time, the attachable outer skin or the attachable inner skin can be detachably coupled to the jacket by means of a Velcro tape or a fastener tape.

In addition, in the jacket having the single-layer structure or the dual-layer structure including the outer skin and the inner skin, the warm pocket is formed by coupling a pocket member including a pocket inner skin and a pocket outer skin to the outer skin of the jacket. At this time, the pocket member is detachably coupled to the jacket by means of the above coupling unit. Thus, the warm pockets having various structures, such as the single-layer structure or the dual-layer structure, can be detachably coupled to the jacket.
